Future Faculty Forum (F3) Faculty Form

HYBRID

MONDAY OCTOBER 16, 2023

This workshop is designed to foster mentorship, education, and collaboration among students who have an interest in becoming AR/VR (or XR) faculty someday. Thus, we are seeking faculty who are willing and eager to impart their knowledge to the next prospective generation of professors. We are also seeking some professors with industry experience to provide comparisons between industry and academia. The workshop will feature panels of current professors discussing various aspects of professorship, including (among other topics) tenure, creating and organizing a research program, teaching, and professional service, and more generally what aspects of their profession they really like and dislike, and why. Additionally, the workshop will include “speed advising” sessions in which students will be able to have 1-on-1 short advising sessions with current faculty. The panels and speed advising sessions will feature diverse faculty to provide students with various perspectives on the meaning of, success within, and preparation for professorship. Throughout the workshop, there will be an emphasis on creating and sustaining an academic environment that is diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible.

You can sign up for as much or as little as you want!

PANELS:
Each panel will last for one hour and will be centered on a specific aspect related to being a professor (e.g. a panel on how to manage a research lab, a panel on dealing with the challenges of interdisciplinary research). For each panel, we will have a brief introduction of the panel members and the panel topic, and then move into questions and group discussions. We will have prepared some starter questions to get the discussion going, after which we will open the floor to questions and comments from the workshop attendees.

Depending on the number of volunteers, we may have to limit the number of panelists in a session. We will reach out to you before the conference to let you know which panel you will serve on, and we will provide more specific preparation instructions. Which panel(s) would you like to sit on?

SPEED ADVISING:
In order to facilitate more personalized discussions, we will also host two “speed advising” sessions. In these sessions, attendees will be paired with a professor for 15 minutes for a 1-on-1 conversation. This conversation gives aspiring/young professors the opportunity to get advice regarding their specific situations and questions, unlike the more general advice from panel sessions. After each 15 minute session, attendees will be rotated out so that more people can get the chance to speak to a professor

SOCIAL EVENT:
There will finally be a social event in the evening which can include informal mentorship and conversations surrounding anything to do with professorship. Signing up to attend this event ensures we have plenty of professors represented for students to mingle with.
